* WHAT…Heavy mixed precipitation expected. Total snow
accumulations between 9 and 12 inches and ice accumulations up to
two tenths of an inch. Winds gusting as high as 35 mph.
* WHERE…Eastern Preston, Eastern Tucker, and Western Tucker
Counties.
* WHEN…From 7 PM this evening to 7 AM EST Tuesday.
* IMPACTS…Roads, and especially bridges and overpasses, will
likely become slick and hazardous. Visibilities may drop below 1/4
mile due to falling and blowing snow.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS…There are two realistic outcomes from this
winter event. One features colder air for the duration, with a
band of heavy snow (8 to 14 inches) for the ridges of West
Virginia which does not mix with other precipitation types. The
second features a temporary transition from snow to sleet and
freezing rain Monday morning before turning back to snow by Monday
afternoon (totals by Monday evening of 6 to 8 inches and a bit of
ice accumulation). Either outcome will produce hazardous impacts
in the region.
